Nets SG Spencer Dinwiddie told The Athletic's Shams Charania that he has tested positive for the coronavirus.
Dinwiddie said that upon flying private back to New York, he didn't test positive and was able to participate in practices. However, the situation has changed and now he's unsure if he's going to be playing in Orlando with Brooklyn, who is an early-entry team into the bubble.
"Over the past few months, I have been diligent about protecting myself and others from COVID-19 by following all designated protocol and quarantining," Dinwiddie said. "I was ready and prepared to rejoin my teammates as we were to be an early entry team in the resumed season. I flew private to return to New York, passed multiple COVID-19 tests over my first several days in New York and was able to participate in a couple practices within the first week.
"Given that I have experienced symptoms, including fever and chest tightness, it is unclear on whether or not I'll be able to participate in Orlando."
Dinwiddie will be tested again after 14 days, in which he will be self-quarantining. A key cog for this Nets team, Dinwiddie has stepped up in the absence of Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant this season, with a career-high 20.6 points per game along with 3.5 rebounds and 6.8 assists. He was also shooting 41.5 percent from the field.
If Dinwiddie can't join the Nets down in Orlando, Brooklyn will be losing another piece. Wilson Chandler has told the Nets that he's decided not to travel to Orlando.
Durant and Irving -- both dealing with their own surgeries from separate injuries -- also won't be a part of the league's reboot. Irving has also been very vocal about not supporting the Orlando restart because he believes it is taking away from the Black Lives Matter movement that has been shedding light on social injustice and police brutality throughout the country.
